2. Higher precision usage: Ceramic has better hardness and elastic modulus than steel. Ceramic bearing is therefore more rigid than steel bearing thus can be used in high precision engineering applications and requirements.

4. High operating temperature: Ceramic is mechanically stable at elevated temperature. It can be used on high speed material cutting.

5. Low Temperature Variation: Ceramic has a lower thermal expansion coefficient. The clearance and the tolerance variation is much lower than steel bearing. It is more superior than steel bearing in varies operating temperature applications.

6. Physical Stability: Ceramic has less thermal deformation, thus its physical dimensions is more stable in varies operating temperature.

7. Self Lubrication: Ceramic never rusts and is self-lubricated. It can be operated without oil or grease.

8. Chemically inert to acid, alkali and salt: Chemical industry is the largest potential application industry of ceramic bearing.

9. Non-magnetic application:
Ceramic bearing is non-magnetic. It will not attract any metallic debris or particle that may cause electrical shorting. This is especially critical in the electronic industries.

Ceramic ball bearing is remarkably outstanding in the first three properties above. While full ceramic bearing is outstanding in all the properties mentioned above over steel bearings.
Full silicon nitride bearing properties are more superior than full zirconium bearing as it can endure higher temperature and is more resistant to acid, alkali and salt.
